Medical Genius's Unspeakable Marriage

Chapter 1267

Everyone was surprised at Matthew's sudden blow- up.

Silas turned slightly pale at Matthew's words.

With a placating smile, he said with embarrassment, "Mr.Larson, I-I'm not lying, really..."

The crown prince also asked in puzzlement, "Matty, could you have gotten something wrong?" Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

Matthew shook his head.

"I've been curious since the beginning.If they really just wanted to deal with the guardian beast, all they had to do was hire some expert fighters at a premium.Why would they hire people from so many distinguished families and powerful forces? After all, a much greater reward is needed to hire these people.These herb growers arent dumb, so why are they willing to pay such a price? Now that I've seen those men just now, I've finally figured it out.Their main purpose in getting us here is to take advantage of our influence to deal with those on the mountain!"

Upon hearing Matthew's words, everyone turned pale and looked at the herb growers simultaneously.

Silas turned as white as a sheet, and his body began trembling slightly.

Undoubtedly, Matthew was right! The crown prince was the first to become furious.

"F*ck! Turns out you bunch of *ssholes are fooling us, huh? Damn it, I'm gonna kill you all first!"

Frightened by the crown prince's words, the herb growers trembled like a leaf.

Just then, Matthew stopped the crown prince and said coldly, "What's the point of killing them? Let me ask you this, Silas: just who the person on the mountain is?"

With a sigh of helplessness, Silas explained in a low voice, "I-I'm not so certain about that, actually.I just heard that the bigwig on the mountain seems to be from Bainbridge, and he's said to be somewhat related to the Nolan Family of Bainbridge’ Upon hearing this, everyone around Silas changed color at once.The Nolan Family of Bainbridge was the number-one distinguished family in Cathay.

If the Nolans really were involved, there was no way they were going to get mixed up in this! Matthew's expression changed as well; he suddenly recalled the previous incident about Gilbert.

Could this be the reason Gilbert came to the South? Seeing that everyone was silent, Silas quickly said, "But, everyone, our ancestors were indeed the ones who discovered the medicinal herbs on the mountain first.They built a village here and kept watch for hundreds of years to wait for these herbs to ripen.But now, these people came all of a sudden to take these herbs away.A-Aren't they just being bullies? Please help us, everyone.After all, these herbs belong to the South.H-How could we let some outsiders take them away as they please?"

Those from Stonedale and Eastshire remained silent while weighing the risks and benefits.

Just then, however, Matthew said right away, "You're right! Naturally, we can't let outsiders take away things that belong to the South!"

The crown prince let out a laugh.

"Haha! You're such a badass, Matty.Let's go! I'll go with you.The Nolans, huh? Ha! I'd like to meet them!"

With that, he followed Matthew closely.

At the sight of the scene, those from Stonedale and Eastshire immediately followed them.

With the crown prince being present, they'd have the backing of the King of the South! Everyone quickly climbed the mountain.

After a little over half an hour, they reached a platform below the top of the mountain.

By the time they got here, everyone had been sweating profusely.

The closer they got to the platform, the hotter it was.

At this moment, a bunch of people were standing at the corner of the platform, blocking the only path up the mountain.

They were led by a young man who dressed like a dandy with his hair slicked back.

With a trace of evil in his eyes, the man didn't seem like a decent person.

When the crown prince saw the young man, his lips twitched at once, as though he had seen his sworn enemy.

"Why is this son of a b*tch here?" he muttered.

Matthew asked curiously, "Who is he?"

The crown prince answered, "He's Perry Lyndon, a distant nephew of Master Levi's wife.Somehow, he got acquainted with Master Levi and has been swaggering around in Galvania since then.He and I have always been at odds, though."

Matthew knitted his brows.

Now that they had come across Levi's nephew, things were going to get troublesome.
